North Dakota Drug Situation: The trafficking and use of methamphetamine is the primary concern
for law enforcement and public health officials in North Dakota. At the present
time, no single drug trafficking organization dominates the distribution
of methamphetamine. Mexican poly-drug organizations have sources of supply
in Mexico, California, and Washington, and transport methamphetamine into
North Dakota via privately owned vehicles, Amtrak trains, and Greyhound buses.
Smaller quantities of methamphetamine are mailed via U.S. mail and Federal
Express. Mexico-based drug trafficking organizations dominate the transportation
of marijuana from the Southwest Border to North Dakota. Private vehicles
and commercial mail carriers are used to ship small quantities, ranging from
five to ten pounds. Local cultivation of marijuana is done on a relatively
small scale.

Cocaine in North Dakota: Cocaine is no longer the stimulant of choice; methamphetamine surpassed
cocaine in that area two years ago. According to RAC Behrman, the Fargo office
encounters very little cocaine today.

Heroin in North Dakota: Heroin distribution and use have not been a significant problem in
North Dakota. Heroin trafficking is a low priority for law enforcement agencies
in the state. Virtually all of the heroin encountered in North Dakota, mainly
in Fargo, is black tar heroin from Mexico.

Methamphetamine in North Dakota: The methamphetamine threat in North Dakota is a two-pronged
problem. First, quantities of meth produced by Mexican organizations based
in California and Washington are transported into and distributed throughout
the state. Second, meth is increasingly being produced in small laboratories,
capable of producing only a few ounces at a time. Because of the extreme rural
nature of the state, as well as the state's dependence on the agriculture industry,
there is a high level of use and availability of anhydrous ammonia among the
state's legitimate agricultural community. Farmers use "nurse tanks" to
apply anhydrous ammonia in their fields. This has resulted in increased thefts
of anhydrous ammonia-commonly used in the "Birch" meth manufacturing
method. A DEA investigation in Grand Forks, North Dakota, resulted in the arrest
of two Mexican nationals and the seizure of over ten pounds of meth. A co-conspirator
in the same case was arrested for attempted murder of a police officer and
possession of over seven pounds of meth. Another meth case resulted in the
arrest of two suspects and the seizure of 10 assault rifles and $10,000 in
cash. According to the El Paso Intelligence Center (EPIC), the number of meth
laboratories seized by the DEA and state and local law enforcement agencies
has increased sharply over the past few years.

Club Drugs in North Dakota: There have been indications that “Club Drugs” are
making their way into the Fargo area in small quantities.

Marijuana in North Dakota: The presence, of marijuana cultivated in Canada (both "B.C.
Bud" and hydroponically generated) had increased dramatically. Canadian
drug organizations from Vancouver and Manitoba use the wide North Dakota border
with Canada to bring these types of marijuana into the United States; the bulk
of the marijuana is destined to areas outside North Dakota.

Other Drugs in North Dakota: There is no significant diversion of legitimate drugs to report.

DEA Mobile Enforcement Teams: This cooperative program with state and local
law enforcement counterparts was conceived in 1995 in response to the overwhelming
problem of drug-related violent crime in towns and cities across the nation.
There have been 409 deployments completed resulting in 16,763 arrests of violent
drug criminals as of February 2004. There have been no MET deployments in the
State of North Dakota.

DEA Regional Enforcement Teams: This program was designed to augment existing
DEA division resources by targeting drug organizations operating in the United
States where there is a lack of sufficient local drug law enforcement. This
Program was conceived in 1999 in response to the threat posed by drug trafficking
organizations that have established networks of cells to conduct drug trafficking
operations in smaller, non-traditional trafficking locations in the United
States. Nationwide, there have been 22 deployments completed resulting in 608
arrests of drug trafficking criminals as of February 2004. There have been
no RET deployments in the State of North Dakota.

DEA Special Topics: Currently, there are six Task Force Officers, representing
five law enforcement agencies, assigned to the DEA in North Dakota. North Dakota
is covered by the Midwest High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA), along
with Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and South Dakota. The Midwest HIDTA
has established four initiatives in North Dakota: Bureau of Criminal Investigation,
Bismarck, Fargo (DEA Task Force), and Grand Forks. The Midwest HIDTA initially
was created to concentrate on fighting the overwhelming increase in the manufacture
and distribution of methamphetamine. Accordingly, Midwest HIDTA funds were
restricted to methamphetamine investigations. In 2001, this stipulation was
lifted, allowing law enforcement agencies to investigate poly-drug trafficking
groups.
